Three steps on Web3Swap
-
Enter the BTC size and paste the Solana payout address for Solana mainnet on this Web3Swap ticket.
-
Confirm Exchange to lock the live Web3Swap quote and reveal this ticket’s deposit details.
-
Broadcast exactly that BTC amount to the deposit. After Bitcoin mainnet confirms, SOL is paid to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- One network confirmation is usually enough before Web3Swap starts the payout.
- BTC confirmation time follows mempool load and the fee attached to your send.
- SegWit deposits usually cost less. If your wallet cannot send to SegWit, message support before broadcasting the Web3Swap deposit.
- If SOL is late, refresh your wallet and re-check the ticket. When a payout hash is already listed, email or SimpleX support with your Exchange ID — Web3Swap has no login that lists expired orders.
Bitcoin tickets on Web3Swap — keep the keys
Bitcoin is still the deepest funding rail. Web3Swap keeps you self-custodial end to end: check the quote, broadcast native BTC, then receive XMR, ETH, stables, or another indexed asset — never a hosted balance.
BTC deposit checklist
- Confirm your wallet can send to SegWit (bc1…) addresses.
- Leave enough for a network fee — low fees mean slower confirmation.
- Broadcast only BTC on Bitcoin mainnet to the deposit shown on your order.
How long does a BTC deposit take?
Block times vary with network load and your chosen fee.
- Use mempool.space or similar tools to check whether your fee is competitive.
- Explorers show queue position — compare against pending transaction volume.
- Average block interval is ~10 minutes, but longer gaps happen.
Why traders move BTC to other chains
Bitcoin offers deep liquidity and wide recognition — many swaps start with BTC as the funding asset.
Moving into Ethereum, stablecoins, or alt L1s lets you access DeFi, payments, or portfolio diversification without a custodial account.
Solana tickets — native SOL vs SPL
Solana Web3Swap tickets move quickly when you use a native SOL address. If the order names an SPL mint instead, fund that mint only — read the quote before you broadcast.
SOL payout not showing?
Refresh or resync your Solana wallet. If the order shows a sent tx, verify the address matches exactly.
SOL payout timing
Solana settlements are typically very quick once your deposit confirms.
- Most SOL payouts land within minutes — often faster than Bitcoin or Ethereum routes.
- Check the order page for a payout signature before contacting support.
- Keep a small SOL balance in your wallet for future transaction fees.
Deposit checklist
Chain mismatches and bad addresses are the usual failure modes — skim these notes before you fund the deposit.

More anonymous no-KYC lanes and chain notes for each coin.
FAQ for this route
Do I need KYC or a Web3Swap login for BTC → SOL?
No. A standard Bitcoin → Solana ticket on Web3Swap skips signup and ID upload. You stay self-custodial on both legs.
How soon does SOL usually arrive?
After the Bitcoin mainnet deposit is final, many payouts leave within minutes. Congestion on Bitcoin mainnet or Solana mainnet can stretch that — mempools and fees set the clock, not a compliance hold.
Does Web3Swap custody my BTC or SOL?
No. You broadcast BTC from a wallet you control; SOL pays only to the address you paste. Nothing sits as a named Web3Swap balance.
What if I send BTC on the wrong rail?
Match Bitcoin mainnet exactly as printed on the Web3Swap ticket badge. A wrong-chain deposit often cannot be credited automatically — verify before you broadcast.
